Seam GWT servlet makes usage of deprecated GWT SerializableE

[jan1972]

Hi,

I am happily using GWT 1.5.2 and Seam 2.0.2 SP1 to build a Web application.

However, since GWT 1.5 the usage of SerializableException has been deprecated, while Seam Remoting servlet for GWT compells its usage as a base class for serializable exceptions to be marshalled from the server to the client.

See code in: org.jboss.seam.remoting.gwt.GWTService#processCall(String)

// Serialize the exception back to the client if it's a declared
 // exception
 if (cause instanceof SerializableException)

Are there any plans to fix this before GWT simply removes this base class?
Should I raise a patch w.r.t. Seam Remoting on JIRA?

Thanks in advance

Yes go the patch route - I still don't know why they went and deprecated that in GWT - seems a little gun-happy to me.
